Much needed update for May

Yes, we are still alive and doing well. I have been a HUGE slacker.
So I will be doing a few posts to update you.
May-June- and July.
So let's get started!

Hope everyone had a great Cinco De Mayo, we sure did. We had a Cinco de "Mustache" party. We enjoyed yummy Mexican food, a pinata, friends and of course mustache's!

John took Jude on his first father and son camp out with the stake!
It was a little cold, but they still had lots of fun!

Mid May Grandma Jones came to visit. We had so much fun playing together. We loved spending the day at Deanna Rose, watching Jude Fish, feed the goats and ride a pony!

And here is cute little Olive, she is loving to stand up!
She is always happy hanging out with the family!

We were lucky enough to leave my mother (grandma Jones) home with the kids while John and I enjoyed a get a way to New york city. A pediatric dental convention brought us to the big apple, but we ended up playing together a lot more than he spent at the convention. We had such a wonderful time playing, while unfortunately my mom spent the weekend caring for sick kids. :(

We spent one night on an air craft carrier on the Hudson River.
At dusk, we watched Top gun while enjoying beautiful views of the city!

A few days before we left, I was looking for things to do in NYC for the weekend we were there, and I found that Lady Gaga would be in central park performing for Good Morning America while we were there. Why Not?! So we gathered in central park with hundreds of other crazy monsters to watch several performances!

Here she is, Lady Gaga rehearsing before she goes live.

While we were in New York, we went to eat at several famous and delicious bakeries, and deli's. Here I am with some treats from Magnolia Bakery. We enjoyed them before heading into our Broadway show that night- 'Catch me if you can'.

After NYC, my mom went home and brought Jude back with her. She would take him and her other grand sons to Aspen Grove- a family camp in Utah. So my sister and her baby came out and spent a week here with us and Olive. We had so much fun. We ate, did some crafts, shopped, we relaxed and we even went camping with some friends!

We had fun camping with our friends, the camping spot was awesome, and allowed all the kids to run around and have fun! Here is the group of girls!

And here are the men!

after their first experience camping. They both did well.

So that is it with May.

Stay tuned for June- fun in Arizona and San Diego!
